There is a sensor near the top center of the
windshield that automatically controls the
system. Keep this area of the windshield
clear of debris to allow for best system
performance.
The high-beam headlamps remain on, under
the automatic control, until one of the
following situations occurs:
.
The system detects an approaching
vehicle's headlamps.
.
The system detects a preceding vehicle's
taillamps.
.
The outside light is bright enough that
high-beam headlamps are not required.
.
The vehicle speed drops below 20 km/h
(12 mph).
The high beams may not turn off
automatically if the system cannot detect
another vehicle's lamps because of any of
the following:
.
The other vehicle's lamps are missing,
damaged, obstructed from view,
or otherwise undetected.
.
The other vehicle's lamps are covered
with dirt, snow, and/or road spray.
.
The other vehicle's lamps cannot be
detected due to dense exhaust, smoke,
fog, snow, road spray, mist, or other
airborne obstructions.
.
The vehicle windshield is dirty, cracked,
or obstructed by something that blocks
the view of the light sensor.
.
The vehicle is loaded such that the front
end points upward, causing the light
sensor to aim high and not detect
headlamps and taillamps.
.
The vehicle is being driven on winding or
hilly roads.
The automatic high-beam headlamps may
need to be disabled if any of the above
conditions exist.
Adaptive Headlight System
If equipped, the Adaptive Headlight system
allows the high-beam headlamps to function

There is a sensor near the top center of the
windshield that automatically detects the
lights of oncoming and preceding vehicles.
Keep this area of the windshield clear of
debris to allow for best system performance.
The headlamp high-beam alters according to
the traffic situation, preventing high beam
light from glaring towards oncoming or
preceding traffic. This gives the best light
distribution without glaring other road
users.
The Adaptive Headlight system remains on
until one of the following situations occurs:
.
The fog lamps are turned on.
.
The system detects a preceding vehicle
’

taillamps.
